Weather station s are placed at airports, not in the middle of town.
With the ice melt going on in greenland, they say it is effecting the jet streams, which in turn effects our weather. It is predicted to get increasingly wild, with bigger deluges of rain, snow, heat and cold.
The predictions are not good, with more destruction, and floods.

Sonofgloin: "...The only pattern I can see is 'erratic'..."
Poirot: “ Um...that's because you're not a climatologist”

Now, where have I heard that before?

[HINT]

“Many years ago there lived an emperor who loved beautiful new clothes…

One day two swindlers [came to the palace]. They said that they were weavers, claiming that they knew how to make the finest cloth imaginable. Not only were the colors and the patterns extraordinarily beautiful, but in addition, this material had the amazing property that it was to be INVISIBLE TO ANYONE WHO WAS INCOMPETENT OR STUPID…

I totally agree with you 579, the predictions are not good, in fact they are not worth the paper they are written on.

Next you'll be blaming it on all those people who take a sly pee while swimming at the beach.
Poirot,
Hmmh let's see. 500ml/day x 60000000000 x 365 =wow !. for once you've got a point !
Congratulation.

Global Warming Predictions….gone wrong:

1.Within a few years "children just aren't going to know what snow is." Snowfall will be "a very rare and exciting event." Dr. David Viner, senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, March 20, 2000.

2."[By] 1995, the greenhouse effect would be desolating the heartlands of North America and Eurasia with horrific drought, causing crop failures and food riots…[By 1996] a continent-wide black blizzard of prairie topsoil will stop traffic on interstates, strip paint from houses and shut down computers." Dr Michael Oppenheimer, 1990.

3."Arctic specialist Bernt Balchen predicts a general warming trend over the North Pole is melting the polar ice cap and may produce an ice-free Arctic Ocean by the year 2000. June 8, 1972.

4."Using computer models, researchers concluded that global warming would raise average annual temperatures nationwide two degrees by 2010." Associated Press, May 15, 1989.

5."By 1985, air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half." Life magazine , January 1970.

6."If present trends continue, the world will be ... eleven degrees colder by the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us in an ice age." Dr Kenneth E.F. Watt, in "Earth Day," 1970.

7."By the year 2000 the United Kingdom will be simply a small group of impoverished islands, inhabited by some 70 million hungry people ... If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000." Ehrlich, Speech at British Institute For Biology , September 1971.

8."In ten years all important animal life in the sea will be extinct. Large areas of coastline will have to be evacuated because of the stench of dead fish." Ehrlich, speech during Earth Day, 1970.

Poirot, you should have those tomatoes stuffed and mounted, they are a monument to nature over science. Or perhaps its the abundace of CO2 that heplped them survive the scientists.

sonofgloin,

If empirical evidence is the fabric enfolding the global warming debate - then it's the denialists who are parading around starkers.

But arguing with you lot here is like hitting yourself on the head with a hammer - it feels so good when you stop.

I'm going to stop.....
